Seed Theatre presents the return of "Shades of Red," the critically acclaimed one-woman show written and performed by Chattanooga native Wendy Pursley. This character-driven performance will run for five shows only at Barking Legs Theater, 1307 Dodds Ave. in Chattanooga: July 25 and 26, and Aug. 1, 2 and 3. Evening shows will begin at 7 p.m., and matinee show will begin at 2 p.m.
Officials said, "A vibrant mix of humor, grit and raw truth, Shades of Red has been captivating audiences for over 25 years.
It brings to life a cast of unforgettable characters—all portrayed by Pursley herself—as it weaves together themes of resilience, identity, womanhood and Southern storytelling. The show began as a tribute to the voices Wendy’s mother encouraged her to share, and has since become a celebrated staple of the regional theatre scene."
“'Shades of Red' is a love letter to every woman who’s ever had to fight for her voice to be heard,” said Elizabeth Haley, executive director of Seed Theatre. “It’s funny, it’s fierce and it’s incredibly human.”
"Proceeds from the production will go directly toward gender-affirming care for a local trans woman activist, reinforcing Seed Theatre’s ongoing commitment to equity, inclusion and community-based impact," officials said.
